How do you get a stuck latch on a backhoe undone?

To free a stuck latch on a backhoe, first ensure the machine is turned off and safely positioned. Inspect the latch for any debris or corrosion that may be causing it to stick, and clean the area if necessary. Apply penetrating oil to the latch mechanism, allowing it to sit for a few minutes to loosen any rust or grime. Finally, gently manipulate the latch with a tool or your hand to release it, being careful not to apply excessive force that could cause damage.
